Ah, then maybe are the person to ask to sleuth out 007's ancestry and see how he fits into my tree.

What a silly woman!

The other day I posted at Ancestry to offer a text file of a book that someone had been looking for a few years ago. Two people promptly took me up on it.

The book is about a family that James Bond claimed descent from in the book/movie The World is not Enough, that being the family motto. I can trace my descent from that family as late as 1820ish in their longtime home parish, myself, 007 being from a branch that left the home parish much earlier and went to London.


So I joked when I sent one person the file:

"if you do come from those Bonds, you (like me) are a cousin of 007. ;)"


Her reply:

"I know I am not connected to 007 in any way."


Still trying to get my head around that one ...


Anybody here related to Hercule Poirot? ;)
